Neutron LBaaS Requirements
Overview
Every cloud operator, vendor, etc. that wants load balancing as a service (LBaaS) has a different view on what load balancing is and how it should work. The goal of this page is to list overall requirements and use cases for the Neutron LBaaS plugin in an effort to concretely understand everyone's view on what load balancing is and how it should work. Furthermore, ranking requirements in terms of priority should also aid in determining the focus of current design and development efforts. This page should also help newcomers to the project understand where current efforts are being placed and why certain areas are not being worked on. If requirements can be created in a prioritized fashion, hopefully all participants in the project can understand expectations and maintain focus in an effort to have a more efficient development experience.
